PIANO WITH SHLOMO
🎹 Pre-Piano Explorers
Playful, music-filled lessons for children ages 4 to 6½
Overview
Pre-Piano Explorers is a gentle, joyful first step for young beginners. Children explore rhythm, pitch, note-reading, and coordination through deskbells, singing, and early keyboard activities — all in a warm, parent-supported environment.
I accompany on guitar and guide each lesson with care and encouragement, creating a musical space where children feel safe to explore, play, and participate.
I create a space where each child’s musical curiosity can grow, letting them follow the path that feels right for them.

Materials
(Families don’t need to bring materials to attend the introductory lesson)
-
Deskbells – Prodigies, Rhythm Band, or Chroma Notes (color-coded to Prodigies Songbook)
No piano at home? No problem. You can try the introductory lesson using my deskbell set and songbook. Materials are required to enroll in ongoing lessons. I provide guidance to all families in selecting a piano to support each child’s continued musical growth. For potential partner or group lessons, each student may need to bring their own deskbells and books.
